Lovely Attendants-in style for the big day

Beautiful  Christine chose the color Black for her attendants which allowed the lovely bouquets to give a "Pop".

Length of the attendant attire is now determined by the bride, not necessarily the time of day of the wedding or formality of the wedding

Tip:

-No matter what length has been chosen, always provide a certain measurement for the hemline of the bridal attendant attire. Such as:

 Floor length-  needs to be hemmed 1 1/2 inch from the floor or brushing the top of the big toe.

 Mid-calf or short-needs to be a certain length from the ankle or bottom of the knee

 Reasoning:

Provides more consistency for photography- over all appeal- the bridal party at the altar and post ceremony photos- does not draw negative attention if all hemlines are consistent

Show Stopper Attendant Attire To Add to the Beauty of the Special Day

Genny was framed in a sea of powder blue bridal  party attire with sweet heart neckline,  creating a soft glow for her beautiful fall wedding.

As opposed to selecting the bouquets to be in contrast with the attire, she selected the flowers to compliment the dresses.  For her two maid of honors, she chose their bouquets  to be several shades darker

Bora Bora to Hotel ZaZa Dallas, Texas -Celebration for All

    A destination wedding was the dream of Lisa and Jay. Just to two of them, sharing vows in Bora Bora.

 Invitations were issued to family and friends to join the newlyweds in Dallas, to celebrate their new beginnings.

Hotel ZaZa was the host accommodations for all the arriving guest on Friday afternoon. Family and friends boarded two motor coaches, full of treats and beverages for a Welcome evening of bowling and dining at Addison 300 Bowling Alley.

Saturday morning was free for leasure, spa or golfing, leading up to an evening of dining and dancing.

At seven o'clock  as guests entered the elaborate setting they were greeted by several screens showing the wedding ceremony of Lisa and Jay in Bora Bora.  Guests could then venture out onto the Urban Oasis  courtyard area, to enjoy appetizers and beverages on the glass top covered pool, or stroll  into the Uptown Ballroom to enjoy the music from Ambiance Entertainment. Lush flowers with lots of candlelight  adorned each table provided for guest with speciality linens and lighting to create a fun atmosphere for all.

A photo booth was enjoyed by everyone, each receiving a snapshot for a memory of the evening and a second one placed in a scrapbook for Lisa and Jay to treasure from their celebration weekend.

Lisa and Jay ended the evening of dinner and dancing with a special cake cutting to share with friends.

It was a fun, filled, over the top evening for all.

Nick and Sam's was the site of the farewell brunch hosted by Lisa and Jay, to send everyone off in style.

Dallas truly provided an incredible Texas weekend for family and guest to celebrate.
